The Why Behind Sickle Cell & Haplo

We wanted a curative treatment for our 9 year old daughter Amaya who was born with Sickle Cell Disease (SS). Unfortunately she had no full match donors available so we did some research about our options and decided to move forward with a Haploidentical Bone Marrow Transplant. Mom and Dad were both tested to be her donor and medical professionals decided that Mom was the best option for being the donor. So far so good! We will continually keep you posted on our journey sharing the good and the bad so that you have an idea of what the transplant journey is like and what life after transplant could look like for you.
